Week 8 Fantasy Football Rankings — PPR

Archived: the board as published Tuesday, October 27, 2026. The Week 8 board in full PPR: the site’s 0.5 PPR board with a disclosed reception nudge — pass-catching backs move up to two spots, receivers up to five and tight ends up to two, while pure runners and low-reception receivers move the other way. Quarterbacks, kickers and defences are unchanged. Badges reflect the latest practice reports; designations land Friday and inactives 90 minutes before kickoff. Houston, New Orleans, the New York Giants and San Francisco are on bye.

Built Tuesday, October 27 at 6:00 PM ET, before the first Week 8 practice reports. Several ranks turn on a designation that has not landed, and Carolina at Green Bay kicked off on Thursday, which left that game almost no runway. Ranked conditionally, pending status: Lamar Jackson (ankle), Saquon Barkley (back), Breece Hall (quadriceps), Aaron Jones Sr. (knee), Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle), Matthew Golden. Not ranked: DeVonta Smith (hamstring), Ladd McConkey (concussion), Emeka Egbuka (concussion), DJ Moore (shoulder), Rashid Shaheed (knee), Tyler Warren (groin) and Zach Charbonnet, who was off the board at build time while working back from the ACL tear that ended his 2025 season and is now the Seattle RB1. The live injury report is the current page for status.

Quarterbacks

Rk	Player	Matchup	Status	Note
1	Josh Allen Buffalo Bills	vs BAL	Healthy	The week’s highest total at 53, at home and favoured by 3.5.
2	Dak Prescott Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI	Healthy	Up from QB9. A 52.5-point game at home, favoured by 6.5 — the best environment on the board after Buffalo.
3	Joe Burrow Cincinnati Bengals	vs TEN	Healthy	Favoured by 10, the widest spread of the week, in a 47.5-point game.
4	Drake Maye New England Patriots	@ MIA	Healthy	Favoured by 7.5 in a 44.5-point game, with A.J. Brown a full participant since Week 7.
5	Jayden Daniels Washington Commanders	vs PHI	Healthy	Off the bye, Sunday night, and the rushing floor is what carries him in a 41.5-point game.
6	Trevor Lawrence Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND	Healthy	Off the bye, favoured by 7.5 in a 47-point game. CBS projects him QB3 this week.
7	Jordan Love Green Bay Packers	vs CAR	Healthy	Thursday at home, 48 total, favoured by 4, with Josh Jacobs back to hold the box honest.
8	Jared Goff Detroit Lions	vs MIN	Healthy	Down from QB1. Still a 46.5-point game at home, but Amon-Ra St. Brown is questionable with the ankle.
9	Lamar Jackson Baltimore Ravens	@ BUF	Out	Conditional. Our feed still lists him Out as of Tue, Oct 27; rank him here only if he practises, and start Tyler Huntley nowhere if he does not.
10	Kyler Murray Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Questionable	A 46.5-point game at Detroit, and the rushing floor is the floor.
11	Matthew Stafford Los Angeles Rams	vs LAC	Questionable	Favoured by 7 in a 44.5-point game, with Davante Adams out six to ten weeks and everything funnelling to Puka Nacua.
12	Caleb Williams Chicago Bears	@ SEA	Healthy	Down from QB3. Last week was a 50.5-point game at home; this is Monday night on the road in a 46.5-point game.
13	Patrick Mahomes Kansas City Chiefs	@ DEN	Healthy	A 42.5-point game at Denver, favoured by 1.5, with Rashee Rice out again.
14	Baker Mayfield Tampa Bay Buccaneers	vs ATL	Healthy	A 45-point game at home; Emeka Egbuka is out, which concentrates the work rather than removing it.
15	Sam Darnold Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI	Healthy	Monday night at home, favoured by 3 in a 46.5-point game.
16	Justin Herbert Los Angeles Chargers	@ LAR	Healthy	Off the bye as a 7-point underdog. That script throws, and that is the whole case.
17	Geno Smith New York Jets	vs LV	Healthy	Up from QB23. CBS names him the week’s top streamer in a pick’em game, with Omar Cooper Jr. emerging.
18	Jacoby Brissett Arizona Cardinals	@ DAL	Healthy	Below consensus: SI has him QB10. A 6.5-point underdog in a 52.5-point game is volume without efficiency.
19	Bryce Young Carolina Panthers	@ GB	Healthy	Down from QB11. Thursday at Lambeau as a 4-point underdog.
20	Kirk Cousins Las Vegas Raiders	@ NYJ	Healthy	A pick’em game totalled at 43.5, with Tre Tucker drawing 19 targets over the last two weeks.
21	Michael Penix Jr. Atlanta Falcons	@ TB	Healthy	Down from QB12, and only on matchup: a 45-point game with Drake London cleared and back.
22	Bo Nix Denver Broncos	vs KC	Healthy	A 42.5-point game at home, and Jaylen Waddle is questionable.
23	Tanner McKee Philadelphia Eagles	@ WAS	Healthy	Sunday night in a 41.5-point game, without Jalen Hurts and without DeVonta Smith.
24	Malik Willis Miami Dolphins	vs NE	Healthy	A 7.5-point home underdog. The rushing floor is the only reason he is on this board.

Running backs

Rk	Player	Matchup	Status	Note
1	Jahmyr Gibbs Detroit Lions	vs MIN	Healthy	The bell cow in a 46.5-point game at home, and not one Detroit skill player carries a designation.
2	James Cook III Buffalo Bills	vs BAL	Healthy	Off the bye into the week’s highest total at 53. Buffalo has not split this backfield.
3	Bijan Robinson Atlanta Falcons	@ TB	Healthy	78% of snaps is the floor; the carry count has been the only wobble.
4	Kyren Williams Los Angeles Rams	vs LAC	Healthy	Favoured by 7 in a 44.5-point game — the script a lead back wants.
5	Javonte Williams Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI	Healthy	85% of snaps, now in a 52.5-point game as a 6.5-point favourite.
6	Derrick Henry Baltimore Ravens	@ BUF	Healthy	A 53-point total, and he gains either way: Lamar Jackson’s return opens the box, his absence narrows Baltimore to Henry.
7	Jaylen Warren Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE	Healthy	87% of snaps, but 39.5 is the lowest total on the board and Rico Dowdle is healthy.
8	Chuba Hubbard Carolina Panthers	@ GB	Healthy	Twenty-eight carries on 94% of snaps in Week 7, but Thursday at Green Bay as a 4-point underdog.
9	Josh Jacobs Green Bay Packers	vs CAR	Healthy	52% of snaps in his return, on a short week, against the run defence CBS rates the league’s worst.
10	Jonathan Taylor Indianapolis Colts	@ JAX	Healthy	Below consensus — SI has him RB5. A 7.5-point underdog is the wrong script two weeks running.
11	Bucky Irving Tampa Bay Buccaneers	vs ATL	Healthy	Up from RB14. CBS now has him a top-eight back on about twenty touches a week, game-script independent.
12	Kenneth Walker III Kansas City Chiefs	@ DEN	Healthy	Well below consensus: SI has him RB3. He is the Kansas City starter, but our own Chiefs page notes he has never finished higher than RB17 this season, and Denver is a 42.5-point game.
13	D’Andre Swift Chicago Bears	@ SEA	Healthy	Kyle Monangai is still out with the toe, which keeps the touches flowing to Swift on Monday night.
14	Ashton Jeanty Las Vegas Raiders	@ NYJ	Healthy	Up from RB19. A pick’em game, and the snap share has been the issue rather than the role.
15	Saquon Barkley Philadelphia Eagles	@ WAS	Healthy	Conditional: questionable with a back injury picked up on Monday night, and our Oct 27 report calls it a game-time decision.
16	Breece Hall New York Jets	vs LV	Questionable	Conditional. Our feed still lists him Out as of Tue, Oct 27 after four straight misses, but the Jets have targeted this week and Braelon Allen keeps a role either way.
17	Jordan Mason Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Healthy	Up from unranked. Aaron Jones played 25% of the snaps before leaving Week 7, and CBS projects Mason near twenty touches if Jones sits.
18	Bhayshul Tuten Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND	Questionable	Off the bye, favoured by 7.5 in a 47-point game.
19	Rhamondre Stevenson New England Patriots	@ MIA	Healthy	Favoured by 7.5, which is the script he wants, but New England has split three ways since TreVeyon Henderson came back.
20	Chase Brown Cincinnati Bengals	vs TEN	Healthy	A 10-point favourite in a 47.5-point game.
21	Ollie Gordon II Miami Dolphins	vs NE	Healthy	Up from RB25. Twenty-five carries on 83% of the snaps in Week 7 — the clearest new workload in the league.
22	Braelon Allen New York Jets	vs LV	Healthy	Down from RB16, and only because Breece Hall may be back: seventeen carries and seven targets on 78% of snaps is a starter’s line.
23	Rachaad White Washington Commanders	vs PHI	Healthy	Off the bye as Washington’s lead back with Jacory Croskey-Merritt on injured reserve, Sunday night.
24	Quinshon Judkins Cleveland Browns	@ PIT	Healthy	Back in the lead role, but 39.5 is the lowest total on this board.
25	Tony Pollard Tennessee Titans	@ CIN	Healthy	Up from RB29 on twenty-five carries, but a 10-point underdog is the wrong script for an early-down back.
26	Omarion Hampton Los Angeles Chargers	@ LAR	Healthy	Off the bye. The carries have been there; the snap share has not.
27	Blake Corum Los Angeles Rams	vs LAC	Healthy	Seventeen carries on 44% of snaps, in the week’s joint-widest spread.
28	Emanuel Wilson Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI	Healthy	Down from RB20. Twenty-four carries but only 48% of the snaps, and George Holani is the other half.
29	Aaron Jones Sr. Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Healthy	Down from RB10, the biggest fall on this board. Questionable with the knee; our Oct 27 report has the imaging clean and him day-to-day, and Jordan Mason is the handcuff.
30	TreVeyon Henderson New England Patriots	@ MIA	Out	24% of the snaps in his return. The split is real and he is the explosive half of it.
31	J.K. Dobbins Denver Broncos	vs KC	Healthy	Down from RB22. CBS calls Denver a full committee now that Jonah Coleman is back.
32	RJ Harvey Denver Broncos	vs KC	Out · IR	The third-down back in a three-way split, and a fade in half-PPR on our own Broncos page.
33	Tyler Allgeier Arizona Cardinals	@ DAL	Healthy	Jeremiyah Love is out again, which leaves Allgeier the rushing load in a 52.5-point game.
34	Rico Dowdle Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE	Healthy	Healthy and sharing: Pittsburgh has said it wants a one-two punch with Jaylen Warren.
35	Austin Ekeler Washington Commanders	vs PHI	Healthy	The passing-down half of Washington’s backfield on Sunday night.
36	Jonah Coleman Denver Broncos	vs KC	Healthy	Off injured reserve, and CBS reports he dominated the second half in Week 7.
37	Kenny Gainwell Tampa Bay Buccaneers	vs ATL	Healthy	Questionable with a hip; the passing-down role behind Bucky Irving.
38	Dylan Sampson Cleveland Browns	@ PIT	Healthy	The change-of-pace back in Cleveland’s committee.
39	Dameon Pierce Philadelphia Eagles	@ WAS	Out · IR	Down from RB13, the widest range on this board: an RB2 if Saquon Barkley sits, a bench player if he does not — and Pierce is himself questionable.
40	Zonovan Knight Arizona Cardinals	@ DAL	Questionable	Arizona’s third back and the deep add behind Tyler Allgeier while Jeremiyah Love is out.

Wide receivers

Rk	Player	Matchup	Status	Note
1	Puka Nacua Los Angeles Rams	vs LAC	Healthy	Davante Adams is out six to ten weeks. Nacua is the Rams passing game, in a game they are favoured by 7.
2	Jaxon Smith-Njigba Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI	Healthy	Up from WR10. Monday night at home in a 46.5-point game, and Seattle’s target tree is thinner with Rashid Shaheed out.
3	Ja’Marr Chase Cincinnati Bengals	vs TEN	Healthy	Favoured by 10 in a 47.5-point game.
4	CeeDee Lamb Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI	Healthy	Up from WR12. The quad is behind him and this is a 52.5-point game at home.
5	Amon-Ra St. Brown Detroit Lions	vs MIN	Healthy	Questionable with the ankle, but Detroit’s own messaging through Monday was positive.
6	Drake London Atlanta Falcons	@ TB	Healthy	Cleared from the head injury and back at practice.
7	Justin Jefferson Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Healthy	A 46.5-point game at Detroit, with Jordan Addison healthy opposite him.
8	Zay Flowers Baltimore Ravens	@ BUF	Healthy	The week’s highest total at 53, but conditional: our Week 7 board dropped him a tier with Tyler Huntley starting, and that still applies.
9	Garrett Wilson New York Jets	vs LV	Healthy	93% of snaps and double-digit targets. The volume survives any script.
10	George Pickens Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI	Healthy	Thirteen targets on 88% of snaps the last time out, in the week’s second-highest total.
11	Tee Higgins Cincinnati Bengals	vs TEN	Healthy	The other half of the best receiver pair in football, favoured by 10.
12	Tetairoa McMillan Carolina Panthers	@ GB	Healthy	Carolina’s target hog, on a short week at Lambeau.
13	Stefon Diggs Washington Commanders	vs PHI	Healthy	Off the bye as Washington’s WR1 for the rest of the season, with Terry McLaurin’s patellar tendon torn.
14	Christian Watson Green Bay Packers	vs CAR	Questionable	Up from WR20. Thursday at home in a 48-point game, and Matthew Golden is questionable.
15	Parker Washington Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND	Healthy	Off the bye. More targets than Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr. combined the last time Jacksonville played.
16	D.K. Metcalf Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE	Healthy	92% of snaps, but 39.5 is the lowest total on the board and Pittsburgh is down Michael Pittman Jr. and Roman Wilson.
17	A.J. Brown New England Patriots	@ MIA	Questionable	A full participant through Week 7, with New England favoured by 7.5.
18	Luther Burden III Chicago Bears	@ SEA	Healthy	Chicago manufactures touches for him, and this is Monday night.
19	Matthew Golden Green Bay Packers	vs CAR	Healthy	Questionable, and a Thursday kickoff leaves almost no practice runway.
20	Michael Wilson Arizona Cardinals	@ DAL	Questionable	Up from WR38, the biggest rise on this board. A 6.5-point underdog in a 52.5-point game throws all afternoon.
21	Jordan Addison Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Healthy	No designation, and the unambiguous WR2 job opposite Justin Jefferson.
22	Tre Tucker Las Vegas Raiders	@ NYJ	Healthy	Up from WR32. Nineteen targets over the last two games and 32 over the last four, per CBS.
23	Courtland Sutton Denver Broncos	vs KC	Healthy	Up from WR35. Our preferred Denver receiver on target share, and he gains outright if Jaylen Waddle sits.
24	Khalil Shakir Buffalo Bills	vs BAL	Healthy	The same 53-point total. The target share has been the inconsistency, not the role.
25	Omar Cooper Jr. New York Jets	vs LV	Healthy	Up from WR37. CBS names him the reason Geno Smith is this week’s top streamer.
26	Jameson Williams Detroit Lions	vs MIN	Healthy	The field-stretcher in a 46.5-point game at home.
27	KC Concepcion Jr. Cleveland Browns	@ PIT	Healthy	A 10.8-yard average depth of target in Week 7, three yards above his season average, per CBS.
28	Xavier Worthy Kansas City Chiefs	@ DEN	Healthy	Leads the Kansas City depth chart while Rashee Rice is out, but Denver is a 42.5-point game.
29	Keon Coleman Buffalo Bills	vs BAL	Healthy	Off the bye into the week’s highest total, and DJ Moore is still out with the shoulder.
30	Germie Bernard Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE	Healthy	92% of snaps and nine targets when Pittsburgh’s room thinned out.
31	Jalen Coker Carolina Panthers	@ GB	Questionable	Questionable, and a Thursday kickoff.
32	Makai Lemon Philadelphia Eagles	@ WAS	Healthy	The published start in Philadelphia while DeVonta Smith is out.
33	Carnell Tate Tennessee Titans	@ CIN	Out	Tennessee’s man on the perimeter, and a 10-point underdog throws.
34	Keenan Allen Indianapolis Colts	@ JAX	Healthy	Nine targets on 45% of snaps in his return, with Tyler Warren ruled out again.
35	Rome Odunze Chicago Bears	@ SEA	Healthy	Down from WR9, the joint-biggest fall here. 99% of snaps, but Luther Burden III is the funnel and our own Bears page calls Odunze a fade at cost.
36	Jakobi Meyers Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND	Questionable	Off the bye. 85% of snaps, and the volume has not followed.
37	Chris Godwin Jr. Tampa Bay Buccaneers	vs ATL	Healthy	Emeka Egbuka is out, which is the whole case — though we prefer Cade Otton for the vacated work.
38	Josh Downs Indianapolis Colts	@ JAX	Healthy	The slot share holds whether or not Keenan Allen is ahead of him.
39	Cooper Kupp Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI	Healthy	Seattle’s number two by routes, and Rashid Shaheed is out with the knee.
40	Caleb Douglas Miami Dolphins	vs NE	Healthy	Back in the lineup, which shrank Malik Washington’s share, per CBS.
41	DeMario Douglas New England Patriots	@ MIA	Healthy	The slot behind A.J. Brown, with New England favoured by 7.5.
42	Wan’Dale Robinson Tennessee Titans	@ CIN	Healthy	75% of snaps. A 10-point underdog throws short and often.
43	Denzel Boston Cleveland Browns	@ PIT	Healthy	91% of snaps, but CBS would rather start KC Concepcion Jr. in full PPR.
44	Jaylen Waddle Denver Broncos	vs KC	Healthy	Questionable, and a fade at cost on our own Broncos page even if he plays.
45	Rashod Bateman Baltimore Ravens	@ BUF	Healthy	Below our own Ravens page, which has him a WR2: three Baltimore pass-catchers cannot all be started in a game Lamar Jackson may not play.
46	Quentin Johnston Los Angeles Chargers	@ LAR	Healthy	Off the bye, and the beneficiary while Ladd McConkey is in the concussion protocol.
47	Kendrick Bourne Arizona Cardinals	@ DAL	Out · IR	Eight targets on about half the snaps; the third Arizona receiver in a 52.5-point game.
48	Jahan Dotson Atlanta Falcons	@ TB	Healthy	The number two behind Drake London, in a 45-point game.

Tight ends

Rk	Player	Matchup	Status	Note
1	Trey McBride Arizona Cardinals	@ DAL	Healthy	90% of snaps and double-digit targets. A 6.5-point underdog in a 52.5-point game is the ideal tight-end script.
2	Brock Bowers Las Vegas Raiders	@ NYJ	Healthy	A pick’em game, and his target share does not move with the script.
3	Tucker Kraft Green Bay Packers	vs CAR	Healthy	Thursday at home in a 48-point game, with Matthew Golden questionable.
4	Colston Loveland Chicago Bears	@ SEA	Healthy	Up from TE15. Cole Kmet is on injured reserve, which leaves Loveland the only Chicago tight end of consequence.
5	Travis Kelce Kansas City Chiefs	@ DEN	Healthy	Rashee Rice is out and Tyquan Thornton is on injured reserve. Kelce is the target floor.
6	Sam LaPorta Detroit Lions	vs MIN	Healthy	A top-four role in Detroit, and Amon-Ra St. Brown is questionable.
7	Kyle Pitts Sr. Atlanta Falcons	@ TB	Healthy	Up from TE19. Atlanta’s second target behind Drake London, in a 45-point game.
8	T.J. Hockenson Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Healthy	No designation, and a 46.5-point game at Detroit.
9	Dallas Goedert Philadelphia Eagles	@ WAS	Healthy	With DeVonta Smith out, there is very little else for Tanner McKee to throw to.
10	Harold Fannin Jr. Cleveland Browns	@ PIT	Healthy	93% of snaps, held back only by the 39.5 total.
11	Mark Andrews Baltimore Ravens	@ BUF	Healthy	Conditional on the quarterback: a top-eight tight end with Lamar Jackson, and our Week 7 page made him a sit with Tyler Huntley.
12	Dalton Kincaid Buffalo Bills	vs BAL	Healthy	Questionable with ribs, but 77% of snaps in the week’s highest total.
13	Hunter Henry New England Patriots	@ MIA	Questionable	A 44.5-point game and a 7.5-point spread.
14	Brenton Strange Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND	Healthy	Off the bye, 81% of snaps.
15	Jake Ferguson Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI	Questionable	83% of snaps in a 52.5-point game.
16	Chig Okonkwo Washington Commanders	vs PHI	Healthy	Off the bye and on Sunday night, but a streamer rather than a start on our own Commanders page.
17	Cade Otton Tampa Bay Buccaneers	vs ATL	Healthy	Emeka Egbuka is out, and we prefer Otton to Chris Godwin Jr. for the vacated work.
18	Pat Freiermuth Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE	Healthy	Pittsburgh’s receiver room is down two, which is the only reason a 39.5-point game ranks here.
19	Colby Parkinson Los Angeles Rams	vs LAC	Out	Up from unranked. CBS reports he is out-targeting Tyler Higbee, who falls off this board entirely.
20	AJ Barner Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI	Healthy	95% of snaps on Monday night, on a thin target count.

Kickers and defenses

Rk	Kicker	Matchup	Defense / ST	Matchup
1	Brandon Aubrey Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI	Cincinnati Bengals	vs TEN
2	Tyler Bass Buffalo Bills	vs BAL	Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND
3	Evan McPherson Cincinnati Bengals	vs TEN	New England Patriots	@ MIA
4	Cam Little Jacksonville Jaguars	vs IND	Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE
5	Trey Smack Green Bay Packers	vs CAR	Dallas Cowboys	vs ARI
6	Jake Bates Detroit Lions	vs MIN	Los Angeles Rams	vs LAC
7	Jason Myers Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI	Washington Commanders	vs PHI
8	Harrison Butker Kansas City Chiefs	@ DEN	Seattle Seahawks	vs CHI
9	Matt Gay Las Vegas Raiders	@ NYJ	Detroit Lions	vs MIN
10	Will Reichard Minnesota Vikings	@ DET	Green Bay Packers	vs CAR
11	Ryan Fitzgerald Carolina Panthers	@ GB	Denver Broncos	vs KC
12	Chris Boswell Pittsburgh Steelers	vs CLE	Buffalo Bills	vs BAL

Kickers are ordered on total and spread rather than on name: Brandon Aubrey and Tyler Bass are in the week’s two highest-totalled games, at 52.5 and 53. Defences are our own. Cincinnati and Jacksonville are the two widest favourites on the board, and Washington is here because Philadelphia played on Sunday night without Jalen Hurts and without DeVonta Smith. Pittsburgh is a defence and a fade at the same time — a 39.5-point total is the lowest of the week, which is why Chris Boswell is twelfth and the Steelers defence is fourth.
